(4) If in the above list Of the 24 letters Of the Greek alphabet (and the same is true of the 22 letters of the Hebrew) the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., up to 24 (up to 22 in Hebrew), be placed before the 24 letters in their order, the number before each letter is its place value.

Every Greek and Hebrew word has thus three values: its numeric, its place value and the sum of the two constituting the value.
